Timoleon: Which part is a lie. Let's do an actual comparison
There is no basis for comparison in the first place, it's already flawed because the chasm between 2,000 and 200,000 is mind boggling.
The percentage of Nigerians who currently collect 200,000 as monthly salary will not be up to 5%(select few). Meanwhile, the percentage of people in UK collecting 2000 and above as monthly salary will definitely be a higher percentage(majority)
For me it just exposes how weak and useless the power of our currency is. One should be ashamed to bring those two figures together as a basis for comparison, in relation to the strength of 2 currencies

I can't help but she'd a hot 🔥 tear 😢 in my heart for Nigeria, the realization always hits me that: in our lifetime and that of our children, many of us will never experience some of the most basic things in life 😔
Just because of bad governance
That's y some people these days don't mind to go to any length just to japa
Moment medical students find out school will be tuition-free
Students at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine erupted in cheers and tears on Monday as Dr Ruth Gottesman, a former professor, announced the school would be tuition-free because of her $1bn donation.
The college is in the Bronx, New York City's poorest borough. Tuition at the school is nearly $59,000 (£46,500) each year and Dr Gottesman's gift is the largest donation ever given to a medicine school in the US.

Seun, pls I think you need to add a dislike button to NL comments for the sake of equity and fairness.
If there is the ability to like a comment, it's only fair that one should be able to 'dislike' an inappropriate comment also. Certain types of comments deserve dislikes.
I believe this would add more value to the site. You could even put it in a poll for nairalanders to vote

Nigeria is a dream killer!
It's like a persons dream is destined to die in this country 😢
Jessyjeff: Please, just say APC mismanaged the Naira by over borrowing and floating of the currency.
When Obasanjo took over in 1999, Nigeria had around 3 billion dollars in foreign reserve. Nigeria was still then heavily dependent on importation; he didn't float Naira, and he didn't stop subsidy on petrol, diesel and Kerosene.
Yet, Nigeria's inflation rate was under 15% and food was affordable too. He assembled able hands who were able to grow the economy and pay Nigeria's debts or negotiate some debt forgiveness.
Why did everything about Nigeria's economy start deteriorating RAPIDLY immediately APC took over government in 2015? APC has no clue about economic management, especially on federal level.
PoliteActivist: *Politeness* I modified my post. See above. It is not economic jargon, it is common sense. If my money can buy more in your house, I'd like your house and buy stuff from your house... until I realize I'm giving you all my money!
B4 u worry about how many things another country's money can buy, u should 1st worry about how many things your own country money can buy
MrSundry: The moment when Pastor Anosike told his congregation that their first salary for the year is for him and not the church. He further states that if none of them gets blessed by middle of the year he would refund them back.
BloomingDale: Nigerian men. Japaing to the white man’s land to go and suck his prick. 😀😀 What a shameful group of men. Na dem wan die ontop submission while there is nothing in them to get one to submit. What a bunch of nonetities. 🤡🤡
I think that one of the ways to solve this problem of bad economy is for more Nigerians to be able to earn in hard currencies. What I recommend to help us start doing that immediately is that people should try to sell any service they can offer online in a global market.
I believe that if more of us do this, it is going to help strengthen the Naira and reduce the rate at which Nigerian youths do illegal things online to survive. It will even reduce insecurity levels in Nigeria because if more people are getting more money then, less people would be ready to do violent acts. So, it's going to be a win-win for all of us directly or indirectly.
So, please, let's share. How do you get paid when you work for overseas clients as a freelancer based in Nigeria in 2023 going to 2024?
You know, there was a time everyone seeking online earning opportunities in Nigeria was struggling to get a Paypal because without a PayPal you couldn't get paid in most online opportunities. Then, Payoneer came and many of us heaved a sigh of relief. I still use Payoneer.
But, I'm wondering is there anything better than Payoneer now? Please share the one you use. Thanks in advance.
Nlfpmod please, help to amplify this hopefully helpful thread.
NSNO: What exactly are you trying to prove? You sound like the white man in Jim crow America who believed that the reason blacks were still poor despite the fact that they were no longer slaves was because they were inferior to the white men.
The business game is rigged, even if a woman and a man have the same business acumen, their chances of success are very different.
Even if the game is NOT rigged, their chances at success are STILL very different.
As long as that doesn't change, as long as it is business as usual, then we are still going to see FAR WORSE

pachigo001: These 3 Y0ruba adults k1ll€d and ate the heart of a Theatre Art female student of LASU.
Prophet/Pastor Segun Philip (42), Owolabi Adeeko (22) and Adeeko’s mother (pictured) k1ll€d 22-year-old Favour Daley-Oladele, cooked her heart and ate it like pepper soup.
Favour was the girlfriend of Owolabi.
More chillingly he has described how the girl’s thr*oat was slit like a goat by his accomplice Pastor Segun Philip and how Favour’s body trunk was opened up to remove her heart which was cooked for him and his mother to eat, as part of a money-making r*tual.
